First introduction of AlliGator (developed for this work) and demonstration of in vivo FRET analysis of time-gated data acquired with an ICCD camera. The supporting information of this article contains an extensive tutorial on phasor analysis, as well as details on data analysis with AlliGator, which can be found here. Data used in this work can be found here, here, here, here, and here.
